Tips for a new makeup artist

[WarmWishesBeauty]

Hi everyone! I'm a new makeup artist and I find I'm constantly finding out new methods of doing things or new products that work better, and I'll be honest I love learning new techniques and find better ways to do things. I find as a makeup artist you're always going to be learning because there are always workshops going on or different styles/themes/looks.

Anyways, I'm a new makeup artist and would LOVE tips and tricks to help me perfect my craft and grow as a makeup artist.

I look forward to hearing all of your tips and tricks

Welcome! Always nice to see practising MuA's here on the board.

First and foremost is practise, practise, practice... Ya we've all heard it a thousand times, yet it's true.

Attend masterclasses and workshops. Engage in Q & A with the artists that are putting them on. Which you already have been doing!

Follow what you're passion about!

Yes! I do need to continue practicing, I'll be honest sometimes I get discouraged because I have such a difficulties at times. I'll be honest, the school I was enrolled in didn't really prep me enough to make me feel confident with my skills. I feel like I will be forever learning and growing (and I love that about this career) but right now I feel like I could use more masterclasses and workshops, something hands on. The school I went to was online so I don't feel like I got as much out of the course to be honest. I feel like with this type of industry you have to learn face to face (at least for me).

Anyways, I'm in the same kind of area as Toronto so if you know of anyone who offers masterclasses and workshops I'd definitely be interested!

I appreciate the tips you had for me!
